The North Carolina Aquarium on Roanoke Island (NCARI) is closed to the public this week for small life support renovations and preparation for future exhibits.

Staff will be on-site during the closure conducting staff trainings, renovating the life support system on the Close Encounters stingray touch pool and preparing for a future oyster exhibit. Additionally, Aquarium Society staff members will complete an inventory of the gift shop.

“This short closure opportunity allows us to complete multi-day projects that positively impact the guest experience without the necessity of overnight work,” said Larry Warner, aquarium director.
